How this score works

The score estimates how strongly this place's review record matches known manipulation patterns, from 0 (no signs) to 100. Verdicts: Clean below 40, Suspicious from 40, Likely Manipulated from 70; Review Drive when the flags are mostly staff asking customers for named reviews. It rises with the share of reviews flagged and how suspicious each one is.

Burst
— an abnormal spike of five-star reviews in a single day compared to the place's usual pace.
Low activity account
— the reviewer has almost no other reviews, photos, or Local Guide history; throwaway accounts look like this.
Duplicate text
— the wording is nearly identical to another review of the same place.

Verdicts are statistical estimates based on public review patterns, not accusations. Full methodology, signal definitions and known limits →

Fedra was our server and she was awesome. The ceviche was the best!

Everything was excellent. From the spectacular food, to the fresh decor, to the genuine hospitality of the staff—especially our sever José, who checked in regularly but also gave my friend and I space to enjoy our meal and converse—Manta is...

My waitress Fabi was amazing. Super sweet & helpful, she guided me through the entire menu & made some excellent recommendations. The food was amazing & their ceviche tacos were 10/10.

Came for a birthday lunch. The menu was an eclectic spin on Peruvian food. I ordered something I wasn’t planning on and it was absolutely delicious! 10/10 must come check it out!! Their Chicha Morada Sour is one of the best I’ve had in Miam...

Get the Tiradito Toho!!! The fish is so fresh, cut in thin slices and the sauce is absolutely amazing, the perfect combination of savory, freshness and texture! I also loved the anticuchero octopus with pesto gnocchi! The octopus was so ten...

High Prices and Value

Several reviewers feel the restaurant is overpriced relative to portion sizes and overall food quality.

Dishes were tasty and well presented. Pricing is misleading as is not a $$ but more like a $$$ restaurant. Also pictures on the menu of some of the items did not represent the actual size of the portion which was quite a bit less. Not worth...

Not a great taste for the price. Food taste normal, nothing special. Fish filet tasted like costco frozen bag.

Updated review. Prices have changed at this restaurant and have gone significantly higher no longer worth the value. Service has gone downhill, mandatory 20% added to your bill and I had to ask for menus, had to ask for water, I had to ask...

Automatic Gratuity

Reviewers note that a mandatory 20% service charge is automatically added to bills, sometimes without prior notice.

I ate at this restaurant when I was in Wynnwood. They have a huge menu and great photographs of the food, which makes it easier to select items. I had the Tortilla las Manta (mahi-mahi tacos) appetizer and the Chaufa Fonca Peruvian fried ri...

Inconsistent Dish Quality

A few reviewers mention certain entrées, such as specific meat dishes or rice preparations, falling short of expectations.

Their menu needs to do some soul searching. It's practically a book (it even has an index). No need for that many food choices when the only thing they do right is ceviche. DO NOT ORDER THE PAELLA: it will ruin your day. It's just soggy ric...

I ordered an Alfredo pasta with beef medallions. Unfortunately the meat was very poor quality extremely tough and rubbery, almost like chewing gum and impossible to properly chew. I notified the staff and they kindly replaced the dish which...

The atmosphere was nice but the service and food was subpar. I've had the pleasure of tasting delicious peruvian food all over the US and Peru. The food served at Mantas was not peruvian food and it taste bad. They focused more on dish pres...

Good for

  • Fresh ceviche and seafood dishes
  • Trendy date nights and casual group gatherings

My boyfriend and I were in Manta tonight and we were blown away by the food at this place. We had a lovely time, but the best part was Washington's service! You're the best, we'll be back! 🙌🏻
